My Background
People often ask "Why did you become an acupuncturist?". It is a very obscure career choice and most people don't understand it at all. There is a great deal of mysticism and skepticism attached to "energy medicine".
Well, what brought me to acupuncture was my own unhealthy body! For years I would catch every cold and flu that circulated and it would seem like it would take 2 months for me to recover! I was literally, sick half my life. I also had many hormonal imbalances, getting premenstrual acne in my twenties, hot flashes and night sweats 20 years before it was normal to experience them, dry itchy skin, headaches, dizziness, thinning hair, an irregular heart beat and the list went on!
Most medical doctors said I was "fine" and sent me on my way. Well, I knew I wasn't fine! I may have been far from death, but my quality of life was poor and my level of vitality was low. I stumbled upon acupuncture and it literally cured me of all my symptoms. I learned that my symptoms were a way to bring attention to the fact that something was wrong. It was crying out for a little "balance". I tell people all the time, it's not a quick fix! I have personally had over 130 acupuncture treatments. It took a year to find the right herbal combination to cure my skin problems, 6 months to regulate my heart rhythm, but time passed whether I attempted to heal myself or not, so why not start today toward a healthy, vibrant life?
